How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Some gurgling or hissing is normal in refrigeration systems, especially during start and stop.
- 1. Observe performance:
- If the cooler maintains proper temperature, the noise is likely normal.
- 2. Check for cooling issues:
- If cooling is poor and noise is excessive, there may be a sealed-system issue.
- 3. Do not attempt sealed-system repairs yourself:
- Contact a licensed refrigeration technician to check refrigerant charge and system integrity.
